High-Energy Particle Diffraction (Theoretical and Mathematical Physics) - Hardcover

From the reviews:

This monograph is a very high quality up-to-date review of soft and hard diffraction processes in strong interaction physics. We can divide this very interesting book into two parts. The first part covers the Chapters 1-7 and can be used as a textbook in particle physics classes. The second part covers the Chapters 8-11 and can be used by graduate students as well as researchers. I think that this book is useful for every particle physicist. (Journal of Computational Methods in Sciences & Engineering)

"The purpose of the present book is to present the main insights which have mentioned the growth of high-energy diffractive physics in recent decades and also to present the recent state of the art. ... This monograph is a very high quality up-to-date review of soft and hard diffraction processes in strong interaction physics. ... I think that this book is useful for every particle physicists." (T. E. Simos, Journal of Computational Methods in Sciences and Engineering, Vol. 3 (1), 2003)

A comprehensive and up-to-date overview of soft and hard diffraction processes in strong interaction physics. The first part covers soft hadron―hadron scattering in a complete and mature presentation. It can be used as a textbook in particle physics classes. Chapters 8-11 address graduate students as well as researchers, covering the "new diffraction": the pomeron in QCD, low-x physics, diffractive deep inelastic scattering and related processes.
